Vestibulo-ocular Physiology Underlying Vestibular Hypofunction [PDF]
Physical Therapy, 2004 AbstractThe vestibular system detects motion of the head and maintains stability of images on the fovea of the retina as well as postural control during head motion. Signals representing angular and translational motion of the head as well as the tilt of the head relative to gravity are transduced by the vestibular end organs in the inner ear.

Prevalence of vestibular disorder in older people who experience dizziness
Frontiers in Neurology, 2015 Dizziness and imbalance are clinically poorly defined terms, which affect ~30% of people over 65 years of age. In these people it is often difficult to define the primary cause of dizziness, as it can stem from cardiovascular, vestibular, psychological ...

Using Inertial Sensors to Quantify Postural Sway and Gait Performance during the Tandem Walking Test
Sensors, 2019 Vestibular dysfunction typically manifests as postural instability and gait irregularities, in part due to inaccuracies in processing spatial afference. In this study, we have instrumented the tandem walking test with multiple inertial sensors to easily ...

Bilateral Vestibular Hypofunction in Neurosarcoidosis: A Case Report [PDF]
Ear, Nose & Throat Journal, 2011 We describe the case of a 59-year-old woman who presented with progressive bilateral vestibidar hypofunction and who was found to have bilateral granulomatous mass lesions of the mesial temporal lobe. Initially, her condition stabilized neurologically with corticosteroids, but a diagnosis of neurosarcoidosis was delayed because of the unusual ...

Morphological correlation between caloric tests and vestibular hydrops in Ménière's disease using intravenous Gd enhanced inner ear MRI. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The purpose of this study was to prove the hypothesis that caloric response in Ménière's disease (MD) is reduced by hydropic expansion of the vestibular labyrinth, not by vestibular hypofunction, by evaluating the correlation morphologically using an ...
